High-End Standmounts: KEF LS50W vs. NOLA Boxer II vs. Revel M106


Hi everyone.

I'm wondering which you'd give the nod to for:

- A small room 
- Pushing primarily vinyl (Planar 3), cd (OPPO 105), and TV
- Music comprising mainly rock and roll, orchestral classical, jazz and blues
- And, as necessary, a Sonneteer Alabaster 55wpc amplifier 

As for the LS50W, the promise of ridding myself of an amplifier is offset by (likely) having to get a phono stage.

Your general impressions would be greatly appreciated!

Good bass for a small speaker, run them full range with a sub crossed over around 60 and you have a really awesome compact system.
I really like the LS 50 too...  I have had several KEF and the Uni Q drivers offer excellent imaging and reproduction of vocals.  
Never heard the Boxer,  but it's the only one of the group not made in China or in the case of Revel Indonesia.  Boxer is made in USA.
